To celebrate Green-Up Day the Fletcher kindergarten participated in a local activity to improve the outside beauty of our building. We donned protective gloves, grabbed some bags, and set out to rid our playground of litter.
Finding litter was kind of like an Easter Egg hunt, but easier. We wondered, why do people litter? We read books that showed us that litter is dangerous for wild animals, and can pollute our soil and water. I am afraid that if any of my kindergarten students sees anyone littering, that person will receive a very stern lecture!
Finding the first dandelion of the season was exciting. We have sincelearned that dandelions provide important food for bees, and we
shouldn’t pick them.
We will continue to learn about how we can fight pollution and be good environmental citizens of our Earth. Later in May we will be going to Echo Lake Aquarium and Science Center. We will learn about the natural history of our region and see the animals that are native to our rivers, lakes, and streams. We have decided that every day can be Green Up Day!
